Default Dryer vent advice

I would follow what upthesaukee suggested, but, I would add the suggestion that the lateral pipe be insulated. When I first put in a dryer vent in the basement the run from the outside wall to the dryer was about 35 feet. I used the aluminum sections of vent pipe, and the heat in the vent pipe condensed and dripped to the floor the full 35 feet. I cured this by wrapping the pipe in insulation.
